Default Wrapping Interior In Leather

I know a couple people here have done it but where can I buy nice leather to wrap the entire interior of my car?
I know Steve sells a kit and I have a bunch of his other stuff but I'm looking to wrap more than what his kit offers plus I have a bunch of custom stuff like TA door panels so his kit won't fit my personal needs. That and I would rather work with just large peices of leather and do it all myself.

Thank you in advance.

I have just started doing the same thing in my T/A. Belive it or not Hobby Lobby has a nice Vinyl that you can get for like $7 a yard. It has a very soft feel to it and is good for the price and what you need to do.

If you have a Joanne fabric store near you, they definitely have a nice large selection to choose from. That's where I got my fabric to redo my headliner.

Black leather but it isn't the factory plastic "leather". I had the seats redone a couple years ago in a high quality leather.
